Florida Georgia Line to play Billboard touring awards show

Florida Georgia Line will be helping "Billboard" celebrate a milestone for the publication, and helping a good cause in the process.

The country duo has been tapped to headline a special show marking the tenth anniversary of the Billboard Touring Conference & Awards. Money raised through the concert will go to Musicians On Call, which provide live music and recordings for patients in healthcare facilities.

Florida Georgia Line's Brian Kelley says he and Tyler Hubbard are "honored to be a part of this event," because they're "huge supporters" of Musicians On Call and believe "music equals healing."

Hubbard adds that the duo has been "given so much this year," so they want to "give back in any way" they can." Florida Georgia Line will also take part in the conference, participating in the event's Artist Development Case Study.

The tenth annual Billboard Touring Conference & Awards will take place in New York on November 13th and 14th.
